NotebookLM Automation

Complete programmatic access to Google NotebookLM—including capabilities not exposed in the web UI. Create notebooks, add sources (URLs, YouTube, PDFs, audio, video, images), chat with content, generate all artifact types, and download results in multiple formats.

Installation

From PyPI (Recommended for AI agents — Python-version-aware):

pip install "notebooklm-py[browser]"   # mandatory; errors must propagate

# [cookies] (rookiepy) is optional and known to FAIL TO BUILD on Python 3.13+.
# Skip it deliberately on 3.13+ rather than swallowing the error — that lets
# *real* install failures (typos, network, PyPI outages) surface for the agent.
if python -c "import sys; sys.exit(0 if sys.version_info < (3, 13) else 1)"; then
    pip install "notebooklm-py[cookies]"   # errors propagate
else
    echo "Skipping [cookies] on Python 3.13+ (rookiepy unavailable). Use 'notebooklm login' interactively."
